True story: When my wife and I moved to Amherst, NH (been 10 years ago now) - we had been in our house about a week. Trash is taken to a transfer station to be disposed of, so I gathered up our trash, and asked my wife if she wanted to go check it out. When we arrived, I saw the scrap metal pile and though I'd walk over and check it out. On the ground was sitting a complete 8274 !!!!! And a sign at the pile said "no picking" well I told my wife to cover me, and I grabbed that winch and tossed it into the back of my pickup. Drove home, hooked up 12 Volts, and the darn thing worked !! Did a rebuild & installed it on the front of my CJ, and it's been sitting there ever since. I still get giddy just thinking about it
